1) The document describes an educational scenario implemented at the Primary School in Tuławki, Poland where students from grades 4-6 were divided into interdisciplinary groups and competed in various subjects over 3 days to become "masters" in those areas.
2) The goal was to stimulate students' interests, creativity, and natural competitiveness through tasks that incorporated different subjects but did not focus strictly on textbooks.
3) Over the 3 days, students rotated through rooms focused on topics like geology, languages, logic puzzles, art, and sports to complete challenges and earn diplomas in those areas before receiving a final summary.

Scenario of the educational situation implemented within the framework of
the Erasmus+ project
The School of Masters
ASSUMPTIONS
Educational situation is an interdisciplinary and interclassactivity. The essence of this
idea is the realization of tasks by groups of students, which include people from
different classes, with different experiences and different skills. The
taskshavebeenplanned in such a way that they include the content of the core
curriculum of various subjects, but at the same time they do not deal with knowledge
strictly from a textbook. The emphasis was placed on stimulating curiosity, creativity,
and the natural desire to healthy competition.
Classes IV - VI were divided into 6 groups, each with the same task to perform, but in
a different room. The group stays in the room for 45 minutes. So each group visits five
rooms in five school hours. The situation lasts for three days. The first two days include
a stay in ten themed rooms, where anyone can become a champion in a field related
to the theme of peace. The third day is dedicated to the Individual Work Office and to
summing up the competition. Tasks are performed on the basis of instructions
prepared in advance. No other classes are taking place during this time.
The task is implemented between March 21 and 23, 2023, according to the schedule
attached as Appendix 1 to this scenario. The students are not involved in the
preparations and the educational situation is a surprise for them.
